Will Green GSM tap the 7-seater ride-hailing market in PH?

MANILA: Green GSM, VinFast’s ride-hailing arm, might expand its offerings in the Philippines with the possible introduction of the Limo Green in the country.

While the company is mum about it, the Memorandum Circular MVL-2025-4841 from the Land Transportation Office indirectly indicates the possible entry of the full-electric seven-seater in the ride-hailing app lineup.

However, there is also that slight possibility that VinFast will retail Limo Green locally — although it would take a significant portion of the possible buyers of the VF9.

Here are some details about the VinFast Limo as stated in the LTO papers.

Vehicle specifications

Based on the documentation, the VinFast Limo Green has the following measurements:

Overall dimensions (length, width, height; in millimeters [mm>)	4,740 x 2,123 x 1,723
Wheelbase (in mm)	2,840
Ground clearance (in mm)	170
Overhang (in mm)	960
Empty weight (in kilograms [kg>)	550
Net capacity (in kg)	550
Gross vehicle weight (in kg)	2,425
Tire size (in inches)	235/55/R18

Powering the vehicle is an electric drivetrain that can deliver up to 201 horsepower — allowing the vehicle to reach a peak speed of 140 kilometers per hour.

Giving the vehicle an emissions-free range of up to 300 kilometers is its lithium-ion energy bank. This can be juiced up from 10-percent to 70-percent state of charge in as fast as 27 minutes.

The same model was seen at the Gaikindo Jakarta AutoWeek 2025, which is expected to have its formal launch there this coming March.
